macOS Big Sur broke Bluestacks. So I can't play my second account and wanted to try using my phone. I signed out of iCloud on my iphone. So SWGoH isn't logging into my usual iOS account. So far, so good. But why isn't google play an option here? they could make it so easy....Meanwhile what are my options? Do I back out of Big Sur, is there another emulator that's known to be working with Big Sur, do I need to buy a tablet? Anyone else finding themselves in this spot and solving it somehow?

You are trying to log in on an Apple device, correct?You cannot log into an apple device with a google account, that is not a game issue they can fix or make more simple. Different operating systems run on different code and I dont think any of them allow you to do that. You can link your game to both Google and apple, but you would have to log into the game to do this process.

Apple don’t let you use a google account to log into game centre..

That seems entirely feasible for EA to me.That's what I'm saying, the reason you cant isnt on the game side of things, that is an Apple/Google thing. They dont want to allow that, it's not the game.

On a deeply spiritual, religious, level, I'm hoping that CG can make this happen. Being able to play on my new MacBook would be magical.

(Like early 2020 model)Yeah, I currently use Bluestacks to play this game and a couple of others on my MacBook Pro. I'm hoping to avoid using Bluestacks with the new MacBooks. I _think_ iMazing might be worth a looking into. I think the folks from ARSTechnia were using it to run .ipa files... so just a thought.

I glossed over when I saw .ipa, even though I know its probably a file format and not the beer I wish to drink.
